How couples boxes survive hot porches
San Antonio summers are hotter and longer than Dallas or Houston, regularly hitting 100-105F from June through September. Cold chain holds 6-8 hours but residents are advised to bring boxes in within 4 hours during peak summer. The city’s military-base presence (Fort Sam Houston, Lackland AFB) means commissary access affects meal kit demand — many military households use meal kits as a supplement, not replacement. San Antonio is more value-conscious than DFW or Houston, so EveryPlate and Home Chef over-index here against premium services.
